Notecards, postcards...
I use these cards both as greeting cards and as note cards for myself. The printing quality is good and the designs lovely. The cardstock is perfect thickness. The cards are not glossy like standard postcards, and I actually prefer it that way. There are also no lines on the backside and that makes these good for notes (or as recipe cards or shopping lists).

Save on postcards so you can write more often!
Purchased for writing to elected officials. It's a great bargain. Some may look lackluster, but when you write an entire stack of postcards in a single evening, you see that they're all different and in bright, vibrant colors. They look beautiful and aren't uniform. It feels good to see a stack of completely different cards even if your message on all of them is the same. They are blank on the back, so you will have to write out the address on the right-hand side yourself, but it also lets you control how much space you want to leave for your message.Some of the designs are really gorgeous! I'm a fan of textiles, so I'm happy I was able to get this set for under $5. It's an amazing bargain and I don't have to feel afraid to send these out because of the cost. Will purchase again.

High-quality paper and bright prints
I am very impressed with this set of Marimekko postcards. I collect and use lots of stationery. I got these for the purpose of sending notes to loved ones during COVID-19 isolation. The paper is thick and high-quality, and the colors are beautiful. I didn’t know much about Marimekko prior to purchase, but the beautiful designs prompted me to read a bit about the design house and its history. Fun designs include stripes, dots, fruits, animals, people, and florals. I imagine this set would be perfect for lovers of Marimekko, textile enthusiasts, designers, or just ordinary folks like me who love pretty stationery. If you are considering these postcards, I’d recommend you grab them and put them in your cart. I would consider purchasing a second box, but it will probably take me a long time to get through the first 100.

High Quality, Artsy, Groovy
The cards are thick paper stock, printed very well with deep and vivid colors - the blacks are black! So many designs that are fun and bold. Some of the smaller designed postcards I fold and use as a gift card. Great value, groovy.

Thick, vivid matte-finish cards
Love the matte look, more sophisticated than gloss in my opinion. Fountain-pen friendly. There are 2 cards each of 25 different designs, for a total of 100.Small size, (4"x5.5") so USPS machine-cancel will go across (almost) the entire top portion of the long edge. Keep that in mind and start your message about 1" from the top edge of the card.True, the postcards do not have a line to separate the address from the message - but please note you do not HAVE to have lines at all, according to USPS. Have sent many with no separator, and no problem getting to the recipient.The wide variety of designs makes these great for many occasions and recipients. I have used them for pen pals, family, friends, and as birthday and holiday greetings.As others have noted, the box seems prone to fall apart. Not a problem as I bought it for my own use and repaired it with glue, but could be an issue if given as a gift.Immensely pleased with this purchase! Would buy again if I ever manage to use all of them. :D

Nice, but no seperation between where you write and the address
I didn't like these because they are smaller than most postcards and there is no separation between where you write to someone and where you put the address.If you don't mind that, then these are just fine.

lovely set of cards
This is my third set of Marimekko cards - probably the best set of designs yet. These are listed as postcards (they are) but it didn't occur to me that there would be no envelopes. I am using them as thank you notes/general note cards, so I will use envelopes that I'll purchase separately. Not a big issue, but just fyi. Also remember these are flat cards - not fold overs. One reviewer noted that the paper quality/thickness was not good. I disagree - these are not heavyweight Crane cards, but they are perfectly fine for correspondence and I think anyone receiving them would consider them to be of quality. We are also using some of the cards as mini-prints on a wall decor, and have cut some cards in 1/4ths to use for gift tags. I really like them!
